Connect the SSI-4 by itself to a serial port and open LM programmer. If it wont connect then the unit is faulty or it doesnt have power to it. Dont forget the arnold plug on the serial in port of the SSI-4 or it wont connect.

Did all that! Disconnected all the sensors and tried it with just the 12v and gnd connected to the green connector and still wouldn't connect. LC-1s, DL-32, TC-4 connected via the LM1 programmer fine but the SSI-4 won't so it's toast!

With the SSI-4 in the system, it won't record a log either and it won't connect via the dash board. With the SSI-4 out of the system, everything else works.

New SSI4 got here today and I got it programmed in and ready for Sunday on methanol @ Piedmont Dragway, down in Julian, NC.

According to Google maps and my Magellan GPS, this is a 136 mile tow but it's really good 4 lane road probably 100 miles of the way. Takes about 2 hrs and 20 minutes to get there running the speed limit.

Piedmont is probably my favorite track and I do wish it was closer. Another problem though is that they are usually covered up with 5.0 "Pilots" on Sunday, which really horks up the starting line for me and it's usually about an hour between passes with me sitting in the car in the staging lanes for about 40 minutes at a time??

Waynesboro is only 70 miles from here but they don't have a T&T this Sunday so Pit Bitch and I will make a longer road trip and I'll just have to suffer sitting in the car between runs. WAAAAAAHH!
